Dictionaries are text files with possible comments, using metasymbols for
substitution, e.g.:

No, I don't know, because I don't know any other languages with non-Latin
alphabets. But recently here a person appeared who was going to make Chinese
translation (you may remember him).

You'll be wondered, but Cifirica is the very program that has been used as a
base for Translite plugin ;) Cifirica's author Roman Koshelev kindly gave me
his sources and allowed to use them in Fidolook. I just slightly optimized
the core algorithm and added Fidolook API support. Also that time I have
started a new verson of Cifirica. Unfortunately, soon he abandoned
Cifirica's site support and programming at all in favour of other activities
:(( His domain cifirica.ru no longer exists now. So, AFAIK now I'm the only
holder and heir of the sources with proper rights to use.
